CIMB FastSaver

[maumu]

sorry if it's an ignorant question, but must u be a muslim to open a shariah-compliant account (fastsaver-i)?

 

[shpesft]

Do you mean that same person can have Fastsaver & Fastsaver-i & both can enjoy 1% up to 50k in each of the above-mentioned accounts?

According to their CSO, yes you can.

Don’t have to be Muslim to open the FastSaver-i account

thanks, did not know about the -i version & have been dumping the overflow of FastSaver interest into a StarSaver for 0.8% instead.

No need, I am not Muslim and I have the i account

I have both, non-muslim

If I sign up for both fastsaver-i and fastsaver account..will the $50k transfer limit be for both accounts add together or I can transfer $50k from each account ($50k*2)?

Both not the same. One is halal and pays profit and no interest

Transfer out limit is 50k per day and it doesn't matter from how many accounts make up the amount, unless you are preferred customer.

Quick question, if got more than $15000.

This or maxi gain?

Vices versa. If less than $15000? Lets say $1000-$10000

If less than $15,000, then Cimb, as maxigain have a daily average of $15,000 to avoid the charges..

If more than $15,000.. place $15,000 in maxigain while the rest in cimb.. once maxigain gains 2 counters, the approximate interest earned would more slightly more than 1% (0.2 + 0.8*1 % sibor), current sibor rate is slightly above 1% iirc..

However do note that the lower balance of money in maxigain compared to previous month will cause a drop of counters (interests %), whereas cimb enjoys 1% fuss free till $50,000

The day you open the account is the day they give you an account number and the day you put in the money is the day they credit your account. With account number, you can also fast transfer deposit into the account.
